Gearing Up for 2026: Fresh Licenses, New Designs, Same PEZ Magic! A Sneak Peek for PEZ Collectors...

As we race full throttle toward the end of the year, 
eagerly awaiting the final Online Exclusive 
PEZ dispensers, we can’t help but look back
 with excitement and gratitude at what a fantastic
 year it’s been for PEZ collectors
 
From amazing new licenses to beautifully
 designed dispensers, 2025 has truly 
delivered plenty of reasons for our collector
 hearts to beat faster!
 
Behind the scenes, the PEZ magic never sleeps! 
While we’re still unwrapping and admiring
 this year’s releases, the creative minds in 
are already buzzing with ideas for the 2026 lineup.
 
 From securing new licenses to perfecting
 every tiny detail of a dispenser, 
the whole process takes about a year, 
so the teams on both sides of the Atlantic
 have been busy cooking up next year’s surprises
 for quite a while now. 
We can almost hear the clinking of candy
 bricks and the hum of PEZ creativity in the air! 
Of course, the official announcements will 
be made once the  
PEZ International Product & Export Catalog is released, 
and most details are still tightly under wraps.
 But… a few little hints have already made 
their way out into the world.
 
We did some digging for you, and in this post, 
we’re excited to share a sneak peek at what PEZ
 might have in store for 2026!
 Please keep in mind that these are early plans
and things may still change before the final 
lineup is revealed. 
 

PEZ Treats Are Back on the Menu!

When PEZ Candy USA launched the PEZ Treats 
series back in January 2021, featuring the now-iconic 
Pizza, Taco, and Burger dispensers, 
we collectors were instantly hooked. 
It was something fresh, quirky, and just downright fun.
 
Over the years, our PEZ Treats collections 
have grown nicely, with plenty of exciting additions, 
from regular releases to Online Exclusives
  and Expo specials
  And now, it’s time to make a little more 
room on those display stands, because
 two brand-new Treats dispensers 
are on their way this coming January!
 
First shown earlier this year at the  
Sweets & Snacks Expo, PEZ will serve up 
a new slice of pizza and a delightfully sweet donut.
 
Now, we’ll admit, these might not have been
 the Treats we were dreaming of 
(there are so many fun ideas still waiting to happen!)
But let’s be honest, we’ll all be sprinting to add
 these to our collections the moment they drop!
 
 get Ready, Collectors! 
When PEZ showed off a massive Bluey-themed display 
 at the Sweets and Snacks Expo in May, it 
was the ultimate tease, confirming that 
Bluey PEZ dispensers are officially on the way! 
The news spread fast through the collector community, 
and ever since, Bluey has been high 
on everyone’s PEZ radar.
 
So far, there’s still no sign of the actual dispensers,
 no photos, no leaks, just whispers and wishful thinking, 
but the wait is almost over.
 We’ll be seeing them soon, and if the excitement 
is anything to go by, these will be instant must-haves for 2026!
 
For anyone new to the craze, Bluey is a beloved 
Australian animated series about an energetic
 Blue Heeler pup named Bluey and her
 little sister Bingo. It’s charming, 
funny, and full of heart, the perfect vibe for PEZ to
 capture in dispenser form.
 
PEZ has big plans for 2026, a completely new Bluey lineup 
is on the way, and it’s set to keep us 
collecting all year long. 
Get your displays ready, because when 
Bluey and Bingo finally land, you know 
it’s going to be a full-on PEZ chase!
 
From Japan to the world, Hello Kitty has captured
 hearts everywhere, and in the world of PEZ, 
she’s long since taken the throne. 
She’s more than just another license; she’s a true icon, 
one that’s become inseparable from the PEZ story itself.
 
 This year alone, we’ve found ourselves 
rearranging and squeezing our Hello Kitty displays
 more times than we can count, and for good reason!
 
With 11 brand-new dispensers 
released in 2025, it’s been the biggest 
Hello Kitty PEZ year ever
Talk about a collector’s dream 
(and a shelf-space nightmare)
 
And of course, it wouldn’t be PEZ without 
another adorable Hello Kitty surprise 
coming our way. 
For 2026, PEZ is keeping the tradition alive 
with an all-new Hello Kitty lineup , 
this time themed around strawberries! 🍓
 
The new collection will feature a  
cute strawberry stem print design for Hello Kitty
adding a fresh twist to everyone’s favorite feline.
 That means our Hello Kitty collections are about 
to grow again, so go ahead and make some room now…
 because when it comes to Hello Kitty PEZ, 
there’s always space for one more!
 
Buckle Up! Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Are 
Rolling Into the PEZ World!
 
Now here’s something we’re really excited about, 
an entirely new PEZ lineup is on the horizon! 
 
Monster truck fans, this one’s for you:  
PEZ has teamed up with Mattel to 
bring the legendary Hot Wheels Monster Trucks 
 to life as PEZ dispensers in 2026!
 
For those who aren’t familiar, 
the Hot Wheels Monster Trucks are the
 larger-than-life cousins of the classic Hot Wheels cars, 
bold, colorful, and built to crush anything in their path.
 They’ve become a huge hit with collectors and 
kids alike, known for their wild designs and 
over-the-top personalities.

And now, they’re getting the PEZ treatment! 🚀

We can hardly wait to share the first 
images of the
 three brand-new Monster Truck PEZ dispensers 
 with you. If the early buzz is anything to go by,
 these are going to be absolute show-stoppers, 
  and definite must-haves for 2026!
 
Bananas on the Horizon: 
Minions 
Return to the Big Screen, and to Our PEZ Shelves!
July is about to go yellow again. 
Bananas will claim the top spot in the food pyramid,
 and tiny blue overalls will become the 
height of summer fashion. 
Yes indeed, everyone’s favorite chaotic
 little troublemakers are returning to 
theaters on July 1, 2026!

A movie that big calls for matching PEZ magic. 

Of course PEZ has secured the Minions license
 once more, because a cinema blockbuster
 without PEZ dispensers would be like a Minion
 without mischief. 
This time, the lineup is getting a stylish upgrade. 
Two classic characters will show off fresh new prints,
 and even better, we get to welcome an all-new 
Minion character into our collections.
 
Collectors, consider this your heads-up to start
 fluffing up some space on your PEZ shelves. 
Let your current Minions shuffle a bit closer together, 
whisper some secret banana plans, 
and prepare to greet the new recruit.
 
Summer 2026 may still feel a little far away, 
though the anticipation is already delicious. 
The countdown to more chaos, more giggles,
 and more PEZ has officially begun.
 
Building the Collection! 
Minecraft PEZ Continues to Expand!
Minecraft has shaped a whole generation of gamers. 
Endless worlds, endless creativity, and now,
 a growing world of collectibles. 
PEZ has embraced that spirit beautifully. 
Across the last two years, a total of 
11 Minecraft dispensers 
have joined our shelves. 
From Steve and Alex to Creepers, each new release 
has felt like discovering another important
 piece of the game come to life. 
 
The story does not stop here. 
Minecraft PEZ will continue into 2026 with 
new additions coming our way.
Details are still under wraps, though the excitement 
is already noticeable among collectors. 
Whatever PEZ has planned, it will be welcomed
 with open collector arms
 
Super Mario PEZ Continues to Grow!
There are a few icons that shaped our 
childhoods forever. 
Super Mario is definitely one of them. 
Countless hours of jumping, running,
 and saving the Mushroom Kingdom… 
and let’s be honest, a whole lot of late-night
 gaming sessions fueled by pure determination
 and maybe some snacks. 
Mario swept the world into his adventures 
faster than you can say “Here we go!” 
 
Lucky for us collectors, Mario and his friends
 have also been longtime residents in the PEZ universe. 
Over the years, they have turned our display 
shelves into mini Nintendo celebrations. 
Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Toad… every new character
 brings another hit of nostalgia straight to the heart. 
 
This year, PEZ already surprised us with 
revamped molds for Mario and Toad,
 giving them fresh details and that spark of modern charm.
 
A true legend gets a makeover!

Donkey Kong himself is stepping into the spotlight.

 The giant, the rival, the hero,
 the banana enthusiast. 
One of Nintendo’s earliest stars is returning 
in a completely newly designed PEZ mold.
 
We will have to be patient before the 
new Donkey Kong swings into our collections. 
Though that sense of anticipation is part of 
what makes this hobby so joyful. 
The countdown to Donkey Kong’s arrival 
has officially started! 
 
Even though we’ve already teased quite a 
few PEZ updates for 2026, believe us, 
that’s really just scratching the surface. 
PEZ still has plenty of surprises tucked away, 
and some of them are bound to be absolute 
show-stoppers that will make collectors 
everywhere sit up a little straighter.
 
Every new PEZ arrival isn’t just a candy dispenser, 
it’s a story, a memory,
 a little piece of joy that finds its place in our 
collections and collector hearts.
Happy Collecting!

New Pup Alert! REX Joins the PAW Patrol PEZ Collection...

Since its debut in 2013, 
PAW PATROL 
has become a worldwide phenomenon,
 racing into children’s hearts 
and homes at lightning speed. 
With its clear, easy-to-follow stories,
 adorable canine heroes, and just the right
 dose of action, the series has struck the 
perfect chord with preschoolers everywhere.
 
Every episode follows a fun, familiar rhythm: 
the PAW Patrol jumps into action, 
tackling problems with courage and teamwork
.
 Kids love spotting the pattern, it’s exciting and 
comforting at the same time. 
Each pup has its own role, firefighter, 
police officer, builder, pilot, 
showing little ones the power of teamwork
 while playfully exploring real-world jobs. 
And of course, the motto  
“No job is too big, no pup is too small” 
 is a constant reminder that anyone can make a difference. 
 
Naturally, with such global success, 
it was only a matter of time before PEZ 
joined the adventure.
 
 In 2017, we proudly welcomed  
Marshall, Chase, and Skye 
into our collections as the very first 
PAW PATROL PEZ dispensers. 

But that was just the beginning!

Over the years, the collection has continued to grow, 
now boasting  
11 different PAW Patrol dispensers 
alongside an entire lineup of themed PEZ treasures, 
 from collectible gift tins and twin packs to 
candy bags and even PEZ dextrose candies.
 PEZ has truly rolled out the full rescue mission!

Shelves at the ready, collectors! 

The 12th PAW Patrol dispenser is joining the crew soon, 
REX
 is on his way!
Rex, a small but mighty Bernese Mountain Dog mix,
 is the newest hero in the PAW PATROL universe. 
He’s not only a dino expert but also the first pup
 in the team with a disability, using his strong front
 legs and a custom-built vehicle to race into action.
 
 His courage, knowledge, and positive spirit make 
him a truly special addition, both to 
Adventure Bay and now to our PEZ collections.
The 2025 European PAW PATROL PEZ assortment, Thank you PEZ International for the pictures ;)
 European fans, get ready, 
Rex will be paws-itively hitting shelves in November 2025.
 
American collectors will have to wait a bit longer, 
Rex is set to appear in stores on June 1, 2026, 
perfectly timed to coincide with the 
release of the new PAW PATROL movie. 
 
Even though Rex hasn’t yet landed in our collections,
 the excitement is already building.
 Part of the magic of collecting is the joy of anticipation, 
and this is definitely one dispenser worth waiting for.
 
So get ready, collectors, ine up your pups, 
make some room on your display, 
and let’s welcome Rex with open paws.
 
Happy Collecting!

Exclusive First Look! New 2025 PEZ Advent Calendar – Golden PEZ Santa Claus Included...

Without a doubt, the 
PEZ Advent Calendar 
has been one of our absolute collecting highlights 
every year since its debut in 2021! 

Not only does it sweeten the countdown 
to Christmas with 24 festive surprises, 
but it also holds something truly special behind its little doors: 
one exclusive, limited-edition PEZ dispenser that you 
can only get by purchasing the calendar.

And now, the wait is finally over, 
we’re beyond excited to unveil the secret
 behind this year’s PEZ Advent Calendar 
and give you an exclusive first look!
2025 PEZ Adventcalendar, Thank you PEZ International for the pictures ;)
The 2025 Advent Calendar stays true to its roots, 
once again wrapped in classic red and green tones.
 This year’s cover features a charming winter landscape scene, 
complete with Santa Claus flying across the sky in his sleigh, 
pulled by his trusty reindeer. It's festive and instantly
 puts you in the holiday spirit!
 As we hinted at a few weeks ago here on the blog, 
the contents of this year’s calendar have taken a slightly
 different turn. 
In previous years, the calendar typically included
 five Christmas-themed PEZ dispensers
 
But this year, PEZ is shaking things up a bit.

What’s Inside the 2025 PEZ Advent Calendar?

This time around, the calendar contains
 three Christmas PEZ dispensers,
 instead of five. 
But before you worry, there’s a twist that
 makes up for the change!
For the first time ever, this year’s calendar includes:
 
One Giant PEZ Tutti Frutti candy roll and
 one PEZ Dextrose Raspberry roll
 
And Now... The Moment You've All Been Waiting For!
Let’s get to the part we know you’re most 
curious about:  
the exclusive dispenser hiding behind one of the doors!
Drumroll, please...
 
It’s a  
Golden 
Santa Claus PEZ dispenser, 
and it’s an absolute stunner!
 
This special dispenser features:
A golden stem with white “HO HO HO” printed on it.
Beautiful white snowflakes on both 
the stem and Santa’s golden hat
 It’s festive, rare, and sure to be the 
centerpiece of any PEZ holiday collection!

The best part: the 2025 PEZ Advent Calendar 
will be available very soon, possibly as early as tomorrow! 
 But, as in previous years, it will be  
exclusively available for European PEZ fans.
 
American PEZ collectors can also look 
forward to a special release.
 Just in time for the holiday season, PEZ will be offering 
the new 
Ugly Christmas PEZ Sweater 
in Tube, in case you missed the details, 
you can read more about it here.
  In past years, many dedicated collectors in Europe
 helped get calendars across the Atlantic 
to fans in the U.S. However, this year might 
pose more of a challenge. 
 
Due to shipping restrictions and rising
 international postage costs, many European
 countries have limited or stopped 
shipping to the USA altogether
or only offer it at very high prices. 
So if you're overseas, getting your hands
 on this beauty might take some extra effort.
From the beginning in 2021, all the PEZ Adventcaledars
Despite the shipping hurdles, 
we’re thrilled to see PEZ once again
 delivering such a fun, festive, 
and beautifully designed Advent Calendar. 
It’s always a joy to unwrap one door a 
day throughout December, and this year’s calendar, 
with its golden surprise and unique 
candy extras, is no exception.
 
Thank you, PEZ, for another magical 
holiday collectible. 
 

We’d love to hear from you! 
Are you planning to grab this year’s calendar?
What do you think of the golden Santa dispenser?
 Drop us a comment below and let us know your thoughts.
Happy Collecting,

Blue, Red, White & Glitter: The Sparkling Evolution of the PEZ USA Flag Ball

 One can't help but wonder,
was this a masterstroke of marketing 
from the very beginning, or did PEZ Candy Inc. 
take a brilliant cue from the ever-creative 
PEZ collecting communities?
 
Last year, collectors were treated to a sparkling
 surprise with the release of the  
Crystal Glitter PEZ USA Flag Ball dispenser,
 featuring a blue stem, exclusively included 
in the limited Pamp Suisse Fourth of July PEZ Silver Gift Set.
With only 2,500 pieces produced, it instantly 
became a coveted item among enthusiasts.
 
Soon after, PEZ Candy Inc. followed up with
 a second version of the same USA Flag Ball design, 
this time mounted on a red stem, launched as a  
Limited Edition Online Exclusive
That’s when something fascinating happened 
in the PEZ communities: 
collectors began customizing their dispensers 
by swapping out stems. 
The goal?
 To complete the patriotic color trio
red, white, and blue
just like the American flag.
 
What started as a DIY effort by passionate
 fans is now becoming official. PEZ Candy Inc. 
has embraced the idea and is releasing a third
 version of the dispenser, now with a white stem
once again as an Online Exclusive.
With the addition of this final variant, 
the USA Flag Ball trilogy is now complete:
 red, white, and blue, each shimmering with 
crystal glitter, and each celebrating the spirit 
of American creativity and independence.
 
It might just be a humble ball-shaped dispenser, 
but for collectors and PEZ lovers alike,
 it's a symbol of thoughtful design and 
responsive fan engagement.
 Here’s to another exciting addition to the 
ever-growing world of PEZ dispensers, 
may there be many more surprises to come!
 
Here you can get the new dispenser for your Collection! 
Happy Collecting!
